Peer Review Paper Stem Cell Research has been one of the most hotly debated ethical scientific dilemmas of the past twenty years. The basic arguments have been based around the idea of which life is more important‚ that of the unborn embryo or that of the potential human life that stem cell research and the application from that embryo might save. In recent years though this concern has dwindled a considerable amount as scientists have begun to experiment with adult somatic cells in place of embryos

The Medical Breakthrough of Stem Cell Research English IV K- 4 27 January 2013 The Medical Breakthrough of Stem Cell Research Someone you care about is suffering from heart disease‚ juvenile diabetes‚ Alzheimer’s‚ or even forms of cancer and the only hope may be through stem cell research. Would‚ or should‚ you support this study? You‚ like many researchers and scientists‚ should have great hope for stem cells and its ability to cure heart disease‚ cancer‚ and neurodegenerative diseases

embryonic stem cell research.” Sandy Adams here expresses that embryonic stem cell research is morally wrong and she would never fund such a case. The original (Adult) stem cell research originated in the 1800’s but the first embryonic stem cell did not begin until 1988. A Hamster was the first then in 1985 one was derived from a primate. This began the takeoff of embryonic stem cell research‚ throughout history there has been one main successful attempt. Dolly the sheep was cloned using human stem cells

Stem cells are cells that have the ability to become any cell type in the body such as a muscle‚ a brain‚ or red blood cell‚ or any other cell. Because of that‚ they are able to repair organs and tissues and can potentially treat diseases such as diabetes and heart disease‚ which is the number one killer in the Unites States. Although stem cells can help massively‚ there is ethical controversy surrounding embryonic stem cell research. Embryonic stem cell research involves taking the stem cells from

Stem cells are a growing field for research. Many pursue this field due to the fact that it can solve many illnesses. Since stem cells are extracted from embryos‚ people have an ethical problem with it. Those who research stem cells believe there are ethical restrictions‚ but that is not true. As a result of stem cell research‚ embryos are being harmed or destroyed; therefore stem cell research should only be performed if there is an alternative solution. Stem cells are undefined cells that are

Stem cell research is the study of cells which are known as unspecialised cells these cells are also known and referred to as stem cells. A stem cell has the ability to differentiate into any cell during early growth and development of an organism. Stem cells all have very unique qualities; these qualities help them to serve the body’s needs. They are able to survive for long periods of time as they can regenerate themselves and also self-replicate‚ they are also unspecialised cells and have the

Abstract To define why adult stem cell research’s is more ethically sound and its track record is so far superior to claims made for embryonic stem cell possibilities to date and why this success will make better laws with more bipartisan agreement possible. In as much has been spoken of the possibilities of stem cells in the regeneration and therapeutic uses for the human condition it is becoming evidently apparent from research advancement that stem cell research in all its forms can yield medical

Stem Cell Research: Should we continue to allow scientists to create new embryonic stem cell lines? Good morning everyone. The topic of Stem Cell Research has been argued over by politicians‚ scientists and people all over the world for over a decade. Scientists should not be allowed to continue to create new embryonic stem cell lines. One of the ways to obtain stem cells for scientific research is to destroy a blastocyst (laboratory-fertilized human egg). Destroying the blastocyst is the equivalent

The Impacts of the Popularization and Transnational Influence of Stem Cell on Health Care and Federal Funding Issues in the Philippines As time goes by‚ there seems to be a gradual influence of modern sensibility on the way humans perceive the concept of health. In fact‚ nowadays‚ there seems to be a blurring of the line between health and wellness. Because of this‚ it is inevitable that in a modern society‚ people are now being more conscious with their body and their health is now being a worrisome
